Set within the majestic wilderness of the Glen Dye private estate, this beautiful home welcomes you to retreat into the heart of nature. Designed by Young Architects of the Year NORD in 2012, this semi-detached house honours its Victorian heritage whilst delivering a modern and stylish aesthetic. It feels luxurious here, but in a way that is natural and effortless. And just like the surrounding landscape, this is the kind of space that inspires a sense of calm and beauty. It’s the small details that matter here. Like waking up and savouring your morning coffee as you read by the fire, or preparing a lunch of hand–picked veggies from the garden. Wind your way along the woodland path and you’ll find your own private wood–fired tub – the perfect spot to soak in the natural elements. Days can be spent hiking, cycling, running, wild swimming or simply sitting and enjoying the powerful presence of the landscape. The estate is also home to a resident BYOB pub, wood-fired sauna and shop where you can find any cupboard staples you might need. After a day full of fresh air, light up the barbecue and enjoy the poetic beauty of this wilderness location.
